Scenarios

You can disable read/write splitting as required. If the multi-proxy function is enabled, you can delete the proxy.

Constraints

  • If the database proxy is disabled, read/write splitting is also disabled and services using the read/write splitting address are interrupted. You need to switch your applications to the instance address.
